You Need This Filson x Juniper Ridge Candle in Your Life

We at The Manual are a little obsessed with Juniper Ridge. And we have equally strong feelings about Filson. Though the companies do great things in different arenas they found common ground, literally, in the Pacific Northwest, home to the accessories brand and hometown of the wilderness perfume company founder, Hall Newbegin. And out of that love for the picturesque region, they collaborated on a candle that smells just like the surrounding forests. As in exactly like them because, true to their other offerings, Juniper Ridge distills indigenous ingredients, like needles, sap and bark harvested from Sitka Spruce, Western Red Cedar, Douglas Fir, foraged during camping trips to the wilds of Washington state. So light the custom braided wick of the 100% beeswax candle and picture yourself surrounded by picturesque (and rain-soaked) woodlands. Both brands have loads of die-hard fans, so consider snapping up this limited edition candle stat. And while you’re at it, get a few as holiday gifts for nature-loving loved ones.

The Manual is simple — we show men how to live a life that is more engaged. As our name implies, we offer a suite of expert guides on a wide range of topics, including fashion, food, drink, travel, and grooming.
